Quick bug report

I just discovered this issue and wanted to see if this is a bug or not. I've tested this a few times with fresh installations of eclipse to diagnose the problem.

When downloading the "JBoss tools 4.15.0" plugin, and restarting the IDE it shows up just fine and works perfectly. The IDE also starts up and runs just fine after I download "Spring tools 4 (suite)" plugin.

While having these two plugins installed:JBoss tools and Spring tools 4 (suite), I try to download "Spring tools 3 Addon" (which functions as an extension tool suite to the Spring tools 4 plugin from my understanding), upon the restart of the IDE it hangs with the start-up picture of the eclipse logo as if it's going to start up however, it hangs there and a massive percentage of my CPU grows exponentially higher forcing me to kill the process and re-install eclipse. (This makes it so I cant start eclipse without this happening again)

After some trial and error, it seems like it only hangs when these two tools have been downloaded: "JBoss tools 4.15.0" and the "spring tools 3" Addon.

Is there a solution or a fix to this? I used to have all these tools downloaded at the same time once before but don't know why it's not letting me now.

I chose eclipse as the product and not the actual plugins, because the plugins when installed work perfectly fine. Its when they are both installed the eclipse platform upon start up halts and uses way to much cpu.

Eclipse platform cannot and will not guarantee compatibility of different plugins that are installed. Especially not for plugins installed with the market place.

That said, to diagnose your problem stack traces are needed to see what is going on while your system hangs. Check this page on how to create the stack traces: https://wiki.eclipse.org/How_to_report_a_deadlock 

Hopefully, the stack traces will give clues if it is a platform issue or if it is caused by one of the plugins.
